Donny Osmond: Christmas at Home CD

The Canadian Brass: The Canadian Brass Go For Baroque CD

Seeing the name of Guy Sigsworth as a producer of Alanis Morissette album, titled Flavors Of Entanglement, I had felt worried. Alanis will lose in style, remember that Guy has been working on albums for artists such as Björk, Madonna or Britney Spears. But after hearing the 11 tracks …
Green Day - Minority (Song)
Minority is a track by Green Day which appears on their album Warning. Minority does open up with an acoustic guitar part, but after this ends, the rest of the song is really just pretty much traditional pop punk which is obviously led by three powerchords played on a …

Album : Emerald Sun - Regeneration (2011)

Metallica - Holier Than Thou (Song)
Holier Than Thou, the third song off The Black Album, is certainly much more aggressive than the previous two tracks of Sad But True and Enter Sandman. Although the aggression and speed of Holier Than Thou doesn’t match the first four records, it’s probably one of the more aggressive …

Weezer - Memories (Song)

The Grateful Dead - Hollywood Cantata (Song)
